Rosen Plaza Hotel

Orlando might be best known for its theme parks, but the city and its surrounding Central Florida countryside make up one of the world's great golf destinations. Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Club & Lodge, home of the Arnold Palmer Invitational, sits right on the doorstep, and it is just one of a huge array of championship courses within easy reach by car, all backed by Florida's warm climate and dependable year-round sunshine. For those wanting an extra-special addition to the trip, a short stay at Sawgrass Golf Resort - home of the iconic TPC Sawgrass Stadium Course and its famous island green 17th - is only around a two-hour drive away, making it an easy and worthwhile bolt-on for golfers looking to combine an Orlando break with one of the game's most recognisable courses.

The Rosen Plaza Hotel puts guests right in the heart of the action, on International Drive and directly adjacent to the Orange County Convention Center, with Orlando International Airport only around 15 minutes away. The hotel comprises 799 rooms and suites (763 rooms and 36 suites), each fitted with modern amenities and workstations, and its central location makes it a straightforward, well-connected base for reaching golf courses across the wider Orlando area as well as the theme parks on the doorstep.

Facilities are extensive for a hotel of this size, including a tropical outdoor pool complete with waterfall and jacuzzi, and seven dining and drinking venues covering everything from the steak-and-seafood menu at Jack's Place to casual buffet dining at Café Matisse and poolside drinks at '39 Poolside Bar & Grille.
